Support Services
Wig Service
Cancer Council Tasmania
We understand that hair loss is a distressing side effect of cancer treatment for many people. Supportive Care Services provide access to a free wig for clients experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatment. Wigs are fitted by a trained staff member and can be accessed at each of our centres in Hobart, Launceston and Devonport. We also have a range of turbans and headwear available.
For more information, or to discuss your wig requirements, please call our Supportive Care Team on 1300 65 65 85.
We also accept donated wigs which are then cleaned, processed and added to our wig service.
